abstract:Book burning (also biblioclasm or libricide) is the practice of destroying, often ceremoniously, books or other written material. In modern times, other forms of media, such as phonograph records, video tapes, and CDs have also been ceremoniously burned or shredded.
Mr.Tabachnyk was not available to comment about the controversy surrounding his appointment or the book burning.
